My main grouse with PS is its handling of memory. It slows down the
longer it stays open. I still think of it as a Mac program confabbed
to work with Windows. It does, however, work better than Viewer in
this respect. Which is little better than an insult.
But how does PW do with the following:
1. Color management (ability to use custom printer and monitor profiles)
2. Shadow/Highlight tool (this ought to have its own keyboard shortcut
-- with digital images it is used more than anything other than levels
and saturation adjustment)
I can't really get along without layers either, but I won't give up
the two above either.
More power to Jonathan though.
